Smallmouth Bass
Smallmouth Bass in the Reeseville, Wisconsin, area are often overlooked, but the Crawfish River and its confluence with other smaller rivers offer some surprisingly good opportunities. While not as abundant as largemouth in some of the nearby lakes, smallmouth thrive in the river's rocky runs and deeper pools. The best time to target smallmouth here is from late spring through early fall (June-October). After the spring spawn, smallmouth will move into deeper water during the day and become more active in the shallows during dawn and dusk. Wading the river is a popular and effective method, allowing you to target specific structure. A local tip: try fishing crayfish imitations, as these are a staple of the smallmouth's diet in this area. Also, pay attention to water clarity. In clear water, use natural-colored baits, while in stained water, brighter colors can be more effective. Look for access points along county roads that cross the river, but be respectful of private property.
